It is worth (there is an item which costs 0,07$ or so) , but you won't make the same profit you would from CS:GO

Not that much profit, but by time.

Most drops can't be sold in steam market. You have to trade hats to refs, keys and stuff, and get used to their economy(pretty much like any other, but converts this to that, that hat worths x$, and y€, bla bla bla, etc).

You're a few years late to the party, the TF2 item market (partially thanks to all the people using dozens, in some cases hundreds of dupe accounts to farm) is over saturated and items lose value over time at a fast rate unlike CS:GO items.

To give you an easy example, back when I started trading little over 2 years ago, 1 key was 6 ref. (in case you're not familiar with it, ref is what you get from your drops) but the last time I checked it was rougly 18-20 ref for a key.

same thing is with Dota
it used to be 6 rares = 1 key,but now 1 rare costs ~ 5 cents and then they cancelled trading random drops...

Csgo has a limit on number of drops. I don't see it happening.
In TF2 metal became cheap because of high weapon drop rate.
In CS the worthwhile skins are all open from cases that require a key. Mass accounts won't help with that. At best, the cases might get cheaper faster, but that is about it.

that is the point. The mistake valve made is left in-game items tradable and marketable. Players that gonna leave the game, will sell/trade them. Soon enough items will will flood and loose the value.

Old skins loose value not because they get oversaturated in market but because they become boring.
At least that is what I have found. There is nothing wrong with having the freedom to sell your items if you quit the game.
I like it. I like the fact I can spend money in a game without the fear of losing it if I leave.

The convo wasn't about what you like or dislike :)) Sure thing you like the possibility to sell in-game items after you quit

I remember buying a strange machina when keys were 2.3ref each. Then I sold it later on when it was worth a lot more. Got about $45 out of it.
